This was a really fun romance and I loved the runaway bride type of concept. It was a super quick and had the perfect steamy bits. I would definitely recommend grabbing this one for your next vacation read!

I just absolutely had so much fun and I was so sad to turn the last page. I can’t wait to read more wonderful stories from this author.

This was such a fun read.
From all of the anti-honeymoon activities the main characters do to the falling in love, I had a smile on my face. Unique story line and I found it very refreshing.

This book was a nice change from a lot of the standard contemporaries. I liked both main characters and the story flowed very well. I really enjoyed it. I highly recommend.

A cute romance. Zach is an adorable hero. Loved this one.

Many thanks to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for my ARC. All opinions are my own.

This was a cute story. Zack is helping Jenna to try and have a good time on her non-honeymoon. While doing this, they have a really great time doing things that couples wouldn’t do on a honeymoon. As they do these activities, they begin to grow closer and realize that they have something solid that they could build a relationship. I really liked this couple and loved watching them fall in love. Jenna is all alone and just needs someone to love and Zack doesn’t know how to show his feeling. They figure things out together and it was so much fun to read.

The Anti-Honeymoon by Bethany Michaels is a fun and cute romcom that will have you hooked and invested in Jenna and Jack’s story as they get closer and closer to one another. Loved it!

The Anti-Honeymoon was such a fun, sweet, steamy and romantic book that is perfect for a hot summer day by the pool. It is a quick read, relatable and lovable characters and I devoured it in a day. I so hated Elliot and wish he had a more satisfying ending - perhaps off a cliff or something. Spoiler- there is a happily ever after and its very satisfying.

Wow, what an amazing read. I loved the story between these two characters, Jenna and Zach. This is a cute and fun romcom read from this author. This book has everything, great characters, great plot line and a bit of heat. this author has a fab way of bringing the characters to life but also making them easy to relate to. This is the first book by this author that I've read and I'll definitely be reading more from them.

The Anti Honeymoon by Bethany Michaels

Jenna flees the church just prior to her wedding as she decided the man she is meant to Marry she doesn’t like at all. She jumps into the car immediately outside the church and says drive! Then the adventure starts as the man driving is Zach (Jenna’s fiancé’s Elliott’s Ex partner ) . They go on the honeymoon and do all the things honeymooners wouldn’t and they have a ball and decide they actually get on.

A very well written fast paced book. Great read full of humour feels good and bad for all concerned. Good anytime read much enjoyed a feel good book.

The Anti-Honeymoon was a delightful read which did entertain me quite a bit. Jenna decides at the last minute that she's really not down with marrying her fiance (Elliot was a complete douche), as he was determined to make their wedding into a publicity stunt, so she basically becomes a runaway bride. She ends up getting into a car which housed Zach, who wasn't a driver like she assumed, but it was the best mistake of her life. The rest of the story really takes place at the honeymoon location, since Jenna is not giving that up so she & Zach (Elliot the fiance's ex business partner, decide to pull off the anti-honeymoon. Their interactions had me laughing a ton, as they were just super fun, while the chemistry is picking up speed at shooting off sparks. I guess my issue is the ending, as it seemed too rushed, or even just a drop off maybe, and I would have just liked a bit more. Seriously though, don't listen to me, just hit that one click button to find out for yourselves!

The Anti-Honeymoon was a fun a quick read by Bethany Michaels. Jenna who ditches her wedding ends up in Zach's car and somehow end up on the honeymoon together doing the most anti-honeymoon activites they can find. Who knew that by helping Jenna, Zach was actually helping himself. Once Jenna and Zach give into their feelings, their chemistry was off of the charts. What an entertaining story.

I received this arc from NetGalley. The story was fun and well written. I loved the characters and how creative the author was with the anti honeymoon options for main characters. #TheAntiHoneymoon #NetGalley

Who are Elliot and Jenna? What decision does Elliot make that has Jenna angry? What does she threaten? Why? Who prompted Elliot's decision? Oh, Zach is so much fun! I like him! Oh my, the hut names and room service food names are over the top! Of course, going to a resort called 'Fantasy Island' means you should probably have some of those sorts of names. I could not stop laughing at the sip and paint adventure. My favorite line of the book was.... "Jenna leaned in to whisper to Zach, 'I think we broke her.'" Jenna and Zach are a hoot together. How do they meet? Who betrays Jenna and how? What does she do? Okay, the ending had me going "Awwwwww...."

RECEIVED THIS BOOK AS A GIFT FOR A FAIR/HONEST REVIEW and REVIEWER FOR Bloggin' With M. Brennan.

when you run out of your wedding and have no other place to go, the only thing you can do is go on the anti-honeymoon. jenna has some pretty big signs she's been ignoring that maybe her fiancé isn't the guy for her, but when he purposely refuses to honor the only request she made about the ceremony, she knows she needs to get out of it somehow.

when she jumps into the car waiting at the curb, she assumes it's the driver her groom hired. zach ruiz has been hanging out in his car trying to figure out why elliott invited him to his wedding, and why he's bothered to show up. when the bride jumps into his car and tells him to drive he's startled into action. when he realizes she has nowhere to go, he can't stop himself from helping her.

and this all leads to zach and jenna taking an anti-honeymoon. the sparks fly between these two. it's totally insta-love but they are charming together, so it's easy to forgive. they do get to know each other a bit before ending up in bed.

this is just a delightful escapist romance.

**the anti-honeymoon will publish on march 16, 2020. i received an advance reader copy courtesy of netgalley/entangled publishing (lovestruck) in exchange for my honest review.

Well this one took me a bit to really get into. It took me until the halfway point to really get hooked. I thought this book was set up very much like a soap opera. There are betrayals of the highest order and there are hookups that are steamy and filled with chemistry. I really enjoyed Jenna and Zach. They each has their issues that they were able to over come with each other. I enjoyed the romance as it was sweet and they made each other better as the story moved along.

Elliot! Lets talk about Elliot. Wow. He was PAIN. That is the word that came to my mind without having to swear. I couldn't believe that he could treat his fiancée like that and a family friend at that.

I recommend this book especially to people that are looking for a light enjoyable romance with the deserved punching.

*Thank you Netgalley for providing this copy for an honest review. *

Fast paced and adorable. This is another cure romance that I couldn't put down. This sexy and humous story is one that will make you crack up laughing all throughout.

This was my first experience reading this author's work and I was pleasantly surprised and thoroughly enjoyed The Anti-Honeymoon. The characters were well developed and so real and genuine. I loved Zach from the moment he drove up to the church. And Jenna's personality and spunk made me want to be her friend. This was a quick, sexy, fun and flirty read that I would definitely recommend.

The Anti-Honeymooon is a standalone contemporary romance by author Bethany Michaels. It is told from both points of view with a happy ending. Sub-Genre: rom-com.

This is the first book that I have read from this author and it won’t be the last. I am not sure why it has taken me so long to read her work. Jenna has second thoughts about marrying her fiancé and when she decided to make a run for it, she jumps into a car and asks the driver to take her away quickly. She didn’t realize that she jumped into Zach’s car. They were so good together. Loved the adventures they went on. Great characters and good storyline.
